About Kimberly Wiefling

Kimberly enables leaders to avoid or fix the most common causes of failure in global teams, problems that damage or destroy companies, along with $Bs in shareholder value. A physicist by education, she has found that many of these are “human” problems that don’t require “rocket science”. All that’s required to achieve significant positive impact in many cases is to make common sense into common PRACTICE.

SPECIALIZING in CROSS-FUNCTIONAL AND CROSS-CULTURAL TEAMS. Kimberly has worked globally with people from over 50 different countries, in every corporate function. Her clients include many well-known global brands in a broad range of industries.

FROM STARTUPS to GLOBAL 1000. Kimberly’s a serial entrepreneur, the founder of Wiefling Consulting, and co-founder of Silicon Valley Alliances. She’s been involved in launching ~ a dozen startups, and was the VP of Program Management & Organizational Effectiveness for one that was acquired by Google in 2001. She invested in and coached the founder of EmbeddedWorks, which bootstrapped to 7 figure annual revenues.
